The fitting meets NSF\/ANSI Standard 14-2009, ASTM F1807, and ANSI\/NSF Standard 61 Annex G for lead-free compliance. Wetted surfaces contain less than 0.25% lead by weight, satisfying California AB1953 and Vermont S15 requirements. Once installed using cinch clamps or copper crimp rings, the connection is immediately testable to well over 100 psi. Licensed plumbers and qualified pipe fitters are the primary installers for this type of fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tee is suited for potable water distribution in residential construction, remodels, and repair work where PEX tubing is the pipe material of choice. It connects three pieces of 1\/2-inch PEX tubing at a tee junction. Barb ends are secured to PEX pipe using TV 608-933 cinch clamps with a TV 608-743 cinch tool, or with copper crimp rings and a compatible crimp tool. The fitting is sold in packages of 24 units, making it practical for job-lot purchasing on multi-fixture projects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free brass construction with less than 0.25% lead by weight on wetted surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eImmediately testable to well over 100 psi after installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with both cinch clamp and copper crimp ring installation methods\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets NSF\/ANSI 14-2009, ASTM F1807, and ANSI\/NSF 61 Annex G standards for potable water transport\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eComplies with California AB1953 and Vermont S15 lead-free mandates\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePackaged 24 units per package for efficient job-site supply\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 1\/2-inch cross-linked polyethylene PEX tubing.

Shut off the water supply and depressurize the system before cutting into existing lines.
